Hitting A High Water Mark:
2024 Moreau-Naudet Chablis 1er Cru Forêts

Posted by Ian McFadden

It's been over six years since we've offered Moreau-Naudet's Forêts.

The domaine's 2024s are so good that we put in an extra effort to have enough bottles for an offer.

The collection represents a high water mark for this great domaine. It is certainly the best wines we've tasted since their brilliant 2017s. 

Moreau-Naudet is producing some of the most exciting wines coming out of Chablis. The 2024 Forêts drives home the profound level at which they are working.

The signature here is a rare and almost magical balance between density and weightlessness. The wines are beautifully transparent, sensuously textured, and zippy. They are hard to deny.

The 2024 Forêts takes this harmony and fine calibration to the extreme. It's a saturating wine with serious precision. You get tremendous depth married to a jagged saline minerality with citrus and floral-inflected high notes.

We were not prepared for the blazing greatness of the 2024 Moreau-Naudet collection. Given how much we love these wines, that's saying a lot. I'm very happy to have an opportunity to offer the Forêts, one of the highlights of the collection.

Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate: "Opening in the glass with aromas of crisp pear, Granny Smith apple and lemon oil, mingled with notes of freshly baked bread, the 2024 Chablis 1er Cru Forêts is medium- to full-bodied, ample and bright, with a crisp core of fruit that simultaneously exhibits considerable ripeness for the vintage, framed by racy acids and a saline finish."
